Onboard: VR Commodore Racecar/Pinnacle Motorsport Tribute 4th Race Meeting Winton Festival Of Speed July 2026

G'day CBM Opers, time for some onboard footage from the recent meeting at Winton Festival of Speed!!

As previously mentioned it was an interesting weekend with the new engine, and whilst the engine itself was flawless (the higher RPM limit allows us to use 2nd around the gumtree and hold 3rd instead of changing into 4th in other areas) the electrical and brake side of things certainly kept us on our toes lol (I've let the footage roll on showing when the old girl decided to drop the RH bank just as we were getting going lol)

So jump aboard the Pinnacle Motorsport Group A Tribute Commodore for our fastest lap of the weekend 1:37.8-just on half a second off the car's Winton PB, so considering I was braking probably 20-30 metres early everywhere I think once all the little gremlins are sorted we should be into the low 1:36s or maybe even better next time out 😁👍🏁

VR Commodore Racecar/Pinnacle Motorsport Tribute 4th Race Meeting-Winton Motor Raceway Festival Of Speed August 2026

G'day legends, here is our recap of a brilliant weekend at last months 2026 Winton Motor Raceway Festival of Speed!! There were certainly a few ups and downs over the course of the meeting but there is no doubt this meeting each year gets bigger and better...and we are bloody privileged to be a part of it 😊

So check out the collection of photos from some very talented people and our thoughts of how the weekend rolled out 😁👍

She's alive!!

Hey legends, with only a week until Winton Festival of Speed at Winton Motor Raceway today was Dyno time at North East Dyno Tuning with the new LS1 heart for the Pinnacle Motorsport Group A Tribute Commodore!!

We've been back and forth with tune files and making small changes and I'm very happy to say the power and torque this thing has made is well up on my expectations.... especially that this little 5.7 is only a mild spec build (regarding parts, machining and budget) so to see the numbers on the screen today made me very very happy!! 😁

Without going into every little detail, it's got a mid level VCM camshaft, stage 1 CNC ported heads, rod bolts, trunnion upgrade and the usual oil pump, timing chain etc reliability upgrades (if anyone is interested I can post a full parts and machining list)

Enjoy this little vid of one of the pulls, what power and torque do you think we made?! 🤔🏁

26/06/2026

G'day legends, just thought I'd give a quick update on the Pinnacle Motorsport Group A Tribute Commodore-at this point we have the LS1 engine at North East Head Repairs with Paul taking care of the machining and resurfacing work, then the T56 gearbox is at Angleside Racing And Mechanical Services with our mate and another Paul working his magic completely rebuilding it with new components....looking forward to having a transmission the actually does what I want it to do 🤔😆
As of today we have less than 4 weeks until Winton Festival of Speed, and whilst it would have been ideal to do a test day a few weeks prior we have booked the extra day for practice on the Thursday at the meeting. The rest of the car is tried and proven so fingers crossed it'll be a matter of plugging the new drive line back in and we'll be away....that's the plan anyway!!
If any of you are planning on coming to WFOS please come and say g'day, I'll have some cool giveaways there so make sure you mention the CBM Ops page and you might end up with a little prize!! 😁👍🏁

VR Commodore Racecar/Pinnacle Motorsport Tribute 3rd Race Meeting-Mallala Historics April 2026
Hey CBM Opers, here is the review of our 1st time competing at the All Historic Mallala race meeting last month!!
We got some absolute belter photos from a number of very talented photographers, plus a few of our own as well to help tell the story of an amazing weekend in S.A. So check them out & let us know what you think!! 🏁

Onboard: VR Commodore Racecar/Pinnacle Motorsport Tribute 3rd Race Meeting-Mallala Historics April 2026

G'day legends, apologies for the lack of posting leading up to our 1st trip to Mallala-our family was devastated with the loss of our dear Dad in the lead up so I'm sure you can appreciate where the priorities had to be....RIP Dad 😥🙏🏁

As we are busy gathering quality photos from at least 8 different photographers, let's run with the onboard footage first-hoping to have everything gathered up for a full review of a brilliant weekend in S.A. in the next week or two.👍

So jump in the Pinnacle Motorsport Commodore Tribute for our fastest (and last) lap of the weekend-there was no V8 out there with less power than our wounded little LS...so it was super rewarding to record the 9th fastest time of the weekend in our Group C & A Tribute category, 1:21.98 😁👍🏁

P.S. I've let the footage roll for the last cool down lap of the weekend-so cool to acknowledge all the volunteers and spectators as we cruise around thanking them for the support ❤️

Happy New Year CBM Opers, crazy to think we are nearly into February already!! 😳

Last weekend the Pinnacle Motorsport Tribute Commodore made its first show n shine appearance, making the trek to the annual Horsepower in the high country in Mansfield Victoria. There was a great turnout (especially considering how hot the day was) and some absolutely beautiful toys on display. Well done to Cameron & the Delatite Drivers Car Club on a super day, all raising money for the Mansfield Autism Statewide Services as well as the local CFA 😊👍

As for our on track 2026 plans, well unfortunately they will be limited based on the current condition of the engine & also the gearbox. Fair to say the motorsport funds coped a hammering last year completing the body kit/livery side of the Tribute so there isn't much left for repairs at this stage. We are officially entered for the Historic Mallala event on April 17-19 so the rocket won't be seeing the track until then.

There are plans for a couple of events later in the year, including Winton Festival Of Speed in July and the Bathurst Light Car Club Speed Weekend in November (Bathurst bought about by the cancellation of Historic Sandown 😭) but that will be dependent on how nicely the engine & gearbox play the game 🙏

Thanks again everyone for your continuing support of the page, it's very much appreciated 😁👍🏁

VR Commodore Racecar 20th Track Day-Winton Motor Raceway BAC Members Day December 2025

G'day guys, final update for our final track activity for 2025-the Pinnacle Motorsport Commodore Tribute took part in the annual BAC Members day and it was a ripper day, thanks to the Benalla Auto Club & Winton Motor Raceway for looking after us members, we are very lucky to be part of such a terrific club 😊

Please check out the photos for descriptions of the lead up & the day itself-there was onboard footage from the day but it wasn't anything special so we might keep it tucked away in the archives 😁

After a massive year I'd like to thank all of CBM Ops' followers for your continued support-it means the world and it's so good to have people interested in the journey!!

Merry Christmas & all the best for 2026 CBM Opers, please take care on the roads & cherish the time with family & friends 😊

Cheers

Craig & Brock 🏁

Onboard: VR Commodore Racecar/Pinnacle Motorsport Tribute 2nd Race Meeting-Sandown International Raceway Historic Sandown November 2025

G'day legends, weird to say it....for the 1st time this year we have some in-car footage!! 😁😁 What a wild time on Saturday with the Melbourne weather doing Melbourne weather things....this was the wettest conditions I've driven in, only rivalled by how wet it was at the 1st day of Bathurst Speed Weekend last year....but in my opinion it's the lowest grip track I've experienced 💦💦

So jump onboard the Pinnacle Motorsport Tribute Commodore for a couple of laps of Sandown Raceway in some pretty tricky conditions....the little LS has less than half the power of a couple of rigs in our group....and I was struggling for traction....can only imagine what it would be like with 600+HP 😳😁🏁
